AmmoLand is a magazine not a newspaper.

There is certain to be an investigation into what happened to Mark Correro during the last few days. Prominent attorneys are seldom killed in such bizarre circumstances.”
It ain’t over
Read it again, and, just so you know marktwain is Dean Weingarten.

I never miss a show (Although I’m still behind by a month).
He’s been posting here longer than you have.
Who the hell cares except you anyway?
Just an anal-retentive jerk who got up on the wrong side of the bed this morning........get a life!
I was thinking the same thing.
Perhaps they were giving him mouth-to-mouth...which would’ve resulted in a red bubbly froth emanating from the hole in his chest. Yuck.
Looks like a nice subdivision on Lake Palestine - definitely not a low rent district. I don’t know that I’d call that a suburb of Tyler - it’s well outside the outer loop.
In various reports it was referred to as part of Bullard, or part of Tyler.
It is relatively close to both.
It may be outside of city limits, but it looks fairly well supported with infrastructure.
Should have said the alleged suspect was allegedly shot and is allegedly deceased.
Interesting resume for the attorney. Looks to be mid-40s. lateraled into a “big law” firm but only lasted a couple of years there before opening his own office. Went from being a junior associate on big cases to taking anything that came in the door, it appears.
Hint for young lawyers - if you are going to try to repo a truck, hire a repo man. Don’t do it yourself.
Does taking out a criminal defense lawyer earn extra points?
Yes. The autopsy might yield more clarity. PCP? Meth? Brain tumor? UTI? or anything else that would make one squirrely.
Thank you Athos. Too many folks blindly accept the premise that is proposed in the headline, which is misleading at best. What do we really know? That there was a dispute of some sort, involving a pickup that was parked at the armed homeowners house, and the intruder apparently was perceived to have threatened said homeowner. The homeowner allegedly warned the intruder several times to stop, but apparently did not, after which the homeowner shot and killed him. Police tried to revived the intruder with CPR, but he was pronounced dead on the scene. So in summary, the Homeowner was accosted over the ownership of a pickup, which was located at his residence, and after apparently feeling threatened by the intruder when he failed to respond to warnings to stop, shot him in the chest with a shotgun. He died at the location when police were unable to revive him.
Well stated. The “reporters” today were trained at the Randolph Hearst School of Yellow Journalism, where apparently the truth does not matter, but presenting a story that sells newspapers (or bandwidth), does.
The title could be the work of an editor.
Allegedly...
t’s Texas, so the homeowner is very unlikely to be charged with anything unless there is more to the story (unlikely IMHO).
I think you are correct and I am not disputing your comment nor disagreeing with Texas law....but.
In most states, and in my state especially, the shooter would be in deep trouble because the cops and the prosecution would take the position that the death was caused by the shooter going outside to check his truck even though he knew the cops were on the way.The prosecutor would say over and over “If you had stayed in the house until the cops arrived, the man would have not been killed.”
He would say it so many times, the jury would believe it.
